Friday

i put the thundershirt on my fluffy girl tonight and last night b/c of the damn storms.
i had waited too long yesterday to give her a calming chew and she wouldn't eat it. so i made sure to give her one today before the afternoon storm hit.

(her and i are so sick of these fucking storms. but luckily we should have a break tomorrow night for the booms and bangs.)
